Motto for a School
Pindar, fragment 227 (tr. Richard Stoneman):
Newer› ‹Older
The interests of the youngThe same, tr. William H. Race:
pursued with dedication
lead to glory; their deeds in time
shine on high.
The ambitions of the young, when exercised with toil,The Greek:
gain fame. And in time deeds shine forth,
lifted up to heaven.
νέων δὲ μέριμναι σὺν πόνοις εἱλισσόμεναι
δόξαν εὑρίσκοντι· λάμπει δὲ χρόνῳ
ἔργα μετ᾿ αἰθέρ᾿ <ἀερ>θέντα.
αἰθέρ᾿ <ἀερ>θέντα Boeckh: αἰθέρα λαμπευθέντα codd.
